[So, Ryner is in Goldenrod's Inn's lounge. He happened to find a seat by himself over by a window, and is apparently currently attempting to write a letter. For a moment, he's distracted by what he sees out the window, though - looks like the huge storm has started in full force.]
Ahh... I don't like this city much, but it's really troublesome to try to travel in this kind of weather. Might as well hibernate here until spring... well, if she'd let me, anyway.
['She' referring to Rose the Cleffa, who is sitting on the floor at his feet, playing with... another Cleffa. (Who is actually Elfy the Ditto, but.) What are they playing? Cards. Yes, Ryner bought a deck of basic playing cards, and they're playing with them. Something resembling Old Maid, by the looks of it. (okay Old Maid is technically from the Victorian era according to Wikipedia, but Roland has dango, so why can't they have a slightly younger card game too.)
Ryner watches the two of them for a moment before returning to attempting to write his letter. Except, after reading it over again, he looks confused for a moment.]
Huh? Somehow, this doesn't look right...
[He blinks at it, even going so far as to pick it up and hold it up to the light in order to figure out just what it is that's bothering him about it. When he does figure it out, however, however...]
Haah? This isn't...
[And this is where he turns on his Pokégear. Because he needs to verify this.]
Oi, has anyone else noticed that they're not writing in the language they use back home? I mean, I guess, now that I think about it, the people who usually live here probably wouldn't use the same language as Roland, but I don't remember learning theirs! And especially not to the point where I don't have to think about it.
Kind of makes it pointless to write this, if it isn't in a language they'd understa--
[And now, with a bit of an 'oof' on Ryner's part, there is a Cleffa on his lap.
"Cleffa clef cleffa!" She holds the deck of cards in one hand, and points to where she had been before with the other. Evidently, Rose wants him to play with her and Elfy (he can tell that the other is the Ditto instead because Rose doesn't constantly bob up and down to a tune only she can hear).]
Ahh, can it wait? I'm kind of in the middle of owwwwwww okay okay one game just please let go of my ear!
[And this is where the feed cuts out. Anyone in the inn, however, will find him forced into playing Old Maid with his partners, perhaps or perhaps not regretting that he's the one who taught them the rules in the first place.]
[...Oh, and the letter is sitting there unfinished. Anyone who decides to sneak a peek will find that it reads the following, so far:
"To Sion and Ferris.
It's not like I was planning on running off by myself like this, so if you could not try to kill me whenever I see you again for disappearing on you, that would be great.
Such as things are, I've been stuck here for a month and a half, in this country called Johto. None of the maps I've found will say where it is relative to Roland, or even the Menoris continent in general. It's definitely really far away, though, since I know that none of the map makers in Roland have ever included a country called Johto either. I have no idea how I got here, and it would have been a huge pain to actually try to.
It's not a bad country, I guess."
Yes, that's as far as he got.]

I'm curious--if it's a place without conflict you want, what must your own world be like?
[voice]
It's gotten better, though, ever since my best friend became the king and started overworking himself like an idiot in order to try to create a country where everyone can live happily.
[voice]
Either way, your friend sounds quite admirable.
[voice]
Ah, Sion's a good guy. An idiot who shoves far too much bothersome work on his best friend while shouldering far too many burdens by himself and blaming himself whenever anything goes wrong, but a good guy.
